Ordered factors (2)

speed_vector should be converted to an ordinal factor since its categories have a natural ordering. By default, the function factor() transforms speed_vector into an unordered factor. To create an ordered factor, you have to add two additional arguments: ordered and levels.

factor(some_vector,
ordered = TRUE,
levels = c("lev1", "lev2" ...))

By setting the argument ordered to TRUE in the function factor(), you indicate that the factor is ordered. With the argument levels you give the values of the factor in the correct order.

From speed_vector, create an ordered factor vector: factor_speed_vector. Set ordered to TRUE, and set levels to c("slow", "medium", "fast").
